Thermal Energy

Question 1

Thermal energy

Answer 1

Is the energy a substance or system has related to its temperature

Question 2

Specific heat

Answer 2

Is the amount of heat per unit mass required

Question 3

Heat

Answer 3

Is transfer other then as worked by transfer of matter

Question 4

Conduction

Answer 4

Is the process by which heat energy is transmitted

Question 5

Convection

Answer 5

is heat transfer by mass motion of a fluid such as air or water when the heated fluid is caused to move away from the source of heat, carrying energy with it.

Question 6

Radiation

Answer 6

radiation is the emission or transmission of energy in the form of waves or particles through space or through a material medium.[1][2] This

Question 7

Thermal insulation

Answer 7

is the reduction of heat transfer (the transfer of thermal energy between objects of differing temperature) between objects in thermal contact or in range of radiative influence.

Question 8

Solar collected

Answer 8

A solar thermal collector collects heat by absorbing sunlight. A collector is a device for capturing solar radiation.

Question 9

Thermodynamics

Answer 9

is a branch of physics concerned with heat and temperature and their relation to energy and work. It defines macroscopic variables, such as internal energy, entropy, and pressure, that partly describe a body of matter or radiation.

Question 10

1st law of thermodynamics

Answer 10

is a version of the law of conservation of energy, adapted for thermodynamic systems.

Question 11

2nd law of thermodynamics

Answer 11

states that the state of entropy of the entire universe, as a closed isolated system, will always increase over time.

Question 12

Temperature

Answer 12

A temperature is a comparative objective measure of hot and cold
